The Feast
of the Epiphany
When the wise men saw the star they
rejoiced exceedingly with great joy
….. and they fell down and worshipped
(the child). Then, opening their treasure
they offered gifts, gold and frankincense
and myrrh
Matthew
2:11
The loving Heavenly Father has
put into the hearts of each and
every one of His beloved children
the desire to know, an inborn challenge
to seek the fullness of His love.
This is the destiny of the fulfilled,
perfected soul: freely to choose
the path of faithfulness in the
in the light and peace and joy of
Our redeeming, sanctifying love.
The light along the way is never
dimmed though many turn away from
time to time. My wounded hand retrieves
as it is sought: the light upon
My face reflects the Father's caring
love and loving care. Come, worship
and adore. So will the reflection
of His light and love illuminate
your heart and mind, directing you
and others on the way.
The way is sure and certain for
all who follow faithfully in trust
and love, and joy accompanies all
who worship in self-giving day by
day. But pain will be encountered
on the way: as it is encountered
and received in trust, so may it
become a gift, an offering to Our
saving love for all mankind.
Joy is man's destiny: identify
and rejoice.
